It is a pathetic waste of an opportunity.

That is an indulgence that takes the eye off the issues he needs to be pounding on.

It foreshadows losing.

It means we are talking about trump saying stupid things and not talking about clinton or obama.

It shows he’s not really thoughtful, and perhaps not serious about stopping clinton whatsoever, that he distracts all with this which has no bearing on his winning or losing.

Nothing at all is possibly wrong with that. Nothing.

Regarding Trump’s gross incompetence as a serious politician and the “rigged system” whine. It may depress Republican voter trun out hurting him and down ticket races, effectively giving more power to Hillary. But it is all about him after all.

Neo: No, I’m not familiar with that article or the topic. But the question of portfolio investment and diversity, is pretty standard fare for the rich and elites. If it is true what Blert said about Trum and his deficit crash with the banks, then the banks near New York were operating on the Trum brand or perhaps Trum’s ancestry. There’s a kind of rich and wealthy class structure going on there, in the NY area at least. They look out for each other. They get the government to bail each other out. The rules don’t apply to them, like Epstein, as much as they apply to peasants and commoners.

To T: I was quoting Sharon, the T you saw wasn’t your name but the start of a sentence that had been caught in the paste/copy. When I attribute quotations, it’s after the ” preceded by a -.

Which is how a slave talks. I see that this vaunted American exceptionalism and freedom which was supposed to have been passed to descendants in the blood, didn’t quite take in this generation.

If you people were actually serious about Clinton being the evil witch of America and that her election will destroy the nation, you would just shoot her or nuke DC with her in it.

Because you people are Not Serious, only pretending to be serious, is why you’re in the fix you’re in.

I think all his talking about a rigged election refers not only to voter fraud, which has affected elections in the past, but also to the supposed free press all coming down on one side of the issue as they have done since 1968. It’s his way of saying ‘we’re watching so be very careful about trying to cheat.’ What on earth is wrong with that?

S’blood, I’ve never heard a politician (and Trump is certainly a politician) jabber on so much about his own dim prospects in my life. Even the most pitifully failing campaigns I’ve ever seen have managed to put out an argument how they’re going to win, right up to the very last day no less, a time when acknowledging what most everyone else can say freely wouldn’t hurt their chances a whit.

And this mega-wise businessman is discovering that his chief asset; the “Trump” brand, is taking serious damage from his venture into presidential politics. Trump Hotels and properties have seen significant declines in traffic, so much so that the brand “Scion” is being substituted for “Trump” when courting customers in the millennials.

Doesn’t sound to me that he anticipated some obvious consequences of his behavior. Just sayin. 🙂

Confused? Look in the mirror. What does the phrase “consent of the governed” mean to you?

The president is NOT the owner/CEO of this country.

He serves at the will of the people for fixed terms subject to termination when he/she violates the Constitution (high crimes and misdemeanors). The President is to be constrained by Congress and the Judiciary, All good in theory, messed up increasingly in practice.

Trump is a businessman of some sort. Big whoop. He has shown gross incompetence in his OJT as a serious politician. But all will be well in his OJT as POTUS, because? He’s not Hillary.
